Crisp baby veg with mint and feta yoghurt dip( SERVES 4 )

Celebrate spring with a platter of the garden’s best offerings. Here I’ve used snow beans but you could also use sugar snaps and snow peas — at this time of year they’re so sweet they are best eaten raw. You could also add sliced raw fennel, witloof leaves and cauliflower florets.Serves 4 as a light, healthy starter or nibble.
